I don't need to know who owns the licenses to the 40 background tracks, or which 3D artist crunched long nights to make that bendy spaghetti Black Panther fighting scene.

The after credits thing was neat when the movies were a spectacle. Now they’re releasing like 15 lovelessly turbospeed-produced marvel films per year and I’m maybe watching them on tv. Waiting through the credits is a dead premise.

i usually just look it up to see if a movie has a stinger before getting in the theatre.

I always stay through the credits of every movie I see theatrically, it's something my dad raised me to do... Out of respect for the people who made the movie he said.

I like to read the names aloud with friends and talk about the made up things they did. Bob Smith? Best Boy? Yeah he is. Helped me move last weekend. Jane Johnson? Second unit director? First in my heart, the one that got away. Etc.

Do you also clap at the end

[–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

LoTR Extended Editions are something like 40 minutes of credits after a 2.5 hour movie. I don’t think I could.

[–] ButtDrugs@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

Bro the extended movies are way longer than 2.5 hrs. The theatrical cuts are longer than that.

Your dad probably just woke up when the lights came up and is trying to get back in the game.

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 2 points 16 hours ago

My dad's not a boomer. In fact he is a big cinema guy

[–] teslekova@sh.itjust.works 4 points 17 hours ago

Yep, same here, unless of course the bladder betrays me...

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Tell me more about Benedict Cumberbatch deepthroating Chris Hemsworth.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He used those portals to do telesucking

[–] justaman123@lemmy.world 4 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

He was suckn everyone, even him self

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 4 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

He bum fucked himself using a portal by just moving the portal back and forth across his ween.

Unfortunately, upon reading this comment, I failed to restrain myself from linking [this YT video (timestamp at 26:01, just in case)]

Truly a sorcerer supreme

[–] Kenny2999@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

I can tell you there will be a hems worth per batch. Thats a lot.

[–] bort@sopuli.xyz 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

if you hated the movie, i understand leaving as fast as possible. but if you liked the movie? won't you stay there a little longer, think about the movie, let it think in, spend some time in the mindset of the movie before returning to everyday life?

[–] ComfortableRaspberry@feddit.org 28 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I need to pee when the movie is over. If I want to sit and contemplate the plot, I can do it on the toilet

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There's at least one app, (RunPee) and probably some websites, that will tell you the best time to take a quick mid-movie break. I usually pick a big fight scene myself because there's less dialogue/plot development and the outcome will be apparent on my return. I do miss the theater from my childhood that piped the soundtrack in to the bathrooms.

[–] topherclay@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Surely the best time to pee is during the credits....

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago

Not if you can't make it that long. And having to leave during the big climax is the worst.

[–] EtnaAtsume@lemmy.world 0 points 22 hours ago

Yeth, marthter, let the latht thene's thinematography really thoak in.

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Business idea for cinemas. Put ads between credits and post-credits scenes.

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 points 10 hours ago

They're probably contractually prohibited from doing that.

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It always seems to me thst nobody stays for the post cred. They presumably feel they can just watch it on YouTube. Maybe it's to avoid spoilers? In which case they're actually smarter than me.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I am one to stay for them unless I really gotta pee. Even if there isn't any extra scenes, it's just easier to leave last than shuffle slowly out with a huge crowd.

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

Real and gay.
